Castlebridge Publishing ripoff, misleading sales letter and stealing money con artist fake ripoff false promises tricked and lied to us Denver Colorado *UPDATE BBB no help! thank you Rip-off Report
I received a slaes letter from Castle Bridge that was very misleading. They stated that for only around $80 I could join their program and make $3 for each letter stuffed and 50% comissoin on each brouchure that got them a sale.
I sent them the cash and waited. After about three weeks of no response with the promised goods in 3 - 7 days I looked on the internet and found them to be fraud.

Oh Stephie;
You have no idea how long I have been waiting for this opportunity. First, I want to get it right out front how much I detest the "Better?" Business Bureau and the racketeering they engage in, to the detriment of the consumers of North America.
Pursuant to your last misleading statement:
"The BBB does not process these complaints because the companys are not located (most times) where you send your money."
Didn't you really make that statement so that you can deceive visitors to your website about this company, who will read the following message?
"...Castlebridge Publishing has had no complaints."
REALLY!! So, you don't take complaints, but report that they have had no complaints. This is fraud and a huge scam - and this is why you need to be put out of business.
Now that we have YOU, the BBB, on this website, we all demand to know how much Castlebridge Publishing contributes to the BBB on a monthly basis? We doubt we will get an answer, because the answer to this question, and for every other member-business, will tell us the level of deceit the BBB uses in exchange for this protection racket, for a fee.
This is the tip of the BBB extortion iceberg and we are going to show you the whole ice floe. In the next few months, the BBB will either come out and repent very publicly of their offenses to the consumers of the US and Canada, or go quietly away into hiding and ultimately into obscurity.
Very Sincerely,
ED Magedson

The US Postal Inspection office investigates work at home schemes because it IS a form af mail Fraud. To obtain a refund from the company you must first send a written request to the company, ALWAYS keep a copy for yourself, If the company does not respond to your request, Notify your local Postal Inspections Office.
Most times the addresses for these companies are just "drop" boxes and the mail is forwarded somewhere else. The correct Postal Inspector for Castlebridge Publishing is in Texas at 10410 Perrin-Beitel, Room 1113, San Antonio, Texas 78284-9900.
The BBB does not process these complaints because the companys are not located (most times) where you send your money.

Subject: Dishonest business - thnank you rip-off report
I received a solicitation from Castlebridge that said, "here is the information you requested", which I thought was odd right away because I did not request it.
The BBB was unable to help me and I was sooooo close to just sending the check because I am a stay-at-home mom and we could really use the supplemental income. I should have known it was too good to be true.
Thanks to all who shared their stories because it was a very unselfish thing to prevent someone else from being scammed. I'm sorry and I hope you receive restitution soon.
Sincerely,
Christine
